Definitions

  • Webs of material are transported through spans that typically have web stabilizers, such as shown in U.S. Patent 4,321,107 .
  • the webs move at a relatively high speed through the spans and across the stabilizers.
  • a force is applied to the outside sheet edge region of the stabilizer to draw the side edges of the web to the stabilizer.
  • the edges of the web are kept in-line with other portions of the web moving across the stabilizer. Minimizing curling of the side edges assists in stabilizing the web, reduces stresses in the web material, reduces web breaks and may improve characteristics of the web material because the side ends are subjected to less stress and stretching.
  • the force applied to the web edge may be formed by air movement along and away from the outside sheet edge region of the surface of the stabilizer facing the web.
  • compressed air or a vacuum may be applied at or near the sheet edge region to draw air from between stabilizer surface and the edge of the web to create a suction force between the web and stabilizer pushing the edge of the web towards the stabilizer.
  • air may be forced or drawn through a gap adjacent the sheet edge and between the outside sheet edge region and an air movement direction device. The gap is generally parallel to and adjacent the side edge of the web. As the air flows through the gap, a pressure drop forms at the web side edge that draws the side edge towards the sheet edge region of the stabilizer.
  • the air movement over the sheet edge region is preferably in a direction flowing away from the web, substantially perpendicular, e.g., 65 degrees to 125 degrees, to the web edge, and aligned, e.g., in a plane, with the intended elevation of the web.
  • air movement may be directed in other directions, including towards or away from the stabilizer.
  • the air flow should create a low pressure between the web and the sheet edge of the stabilizer such that the low pressure pulls the side edges of the web towards the sheet edge.
  • the invention may be embodied as a web stabilizer comprising: a surface adjacent a moving web, wherein the surface includes a sheet edge region adjacent each side edge of the web, and a fluid moving device mounted to or near the sheet edge region, wherein the fluid moving device causes fluid to move adjacent the sheet edge region in a direction moving away from the side edge of the web aligned with the sheet region.
  • the invention may be a web stabilizer comprising: a surface adjacent a moving web, wherein the surface includes a sheet edge region adjacent each side edge of the web; a gap forming device mounted to or near the sheet edge region; a gap adjacent the side edge of the web and formed between the gap forming device and the surface, and a source of pressurized fluid positioned to force a fluid through the gap in a direction away from the side edge of the web.
  • the invention may be embodied as a method to reduce curl in a side edge of a moving web comprising: moving the web along a surface of a stabilizer; moving air away from a side edge of the web as the web moves along the surface of the stabilizer; moving the edge of the web towards the surface of the stabilizer by a force formed by the movement of the air away from the side edge.
  • FIGURES 1 and 2 are schematic cross-sectional diagrams of a web stabilizer 1 and a web or sheet 4 (collectively referred to as a web) moving below the stabilizer in a direction perpendicular to the page of the figure.
  • a moving fluid preferably a gas such as air
  • the moving fluid, e.g. air, 9 creates a force that stabilizes the web edges 5 and reduces or eliminates curling of the edges 5.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show curled edges of the web. Reducing curling should reduce sheet breaks and improve performance and the speed potential of the web machine, which may be a tissue, paper, board or other web processing machine.
  • the stationary web stabilizer 1 may be a generally rectangular device having a substantially flat bottom surface 17.
  • the web 4 moves at a high velocity, e.g., such as 4,000 to 7,000 feet per minute (1,200 to 2,100 meters per minute).
  • the movement of the web causes the air next to the web to move and particularly causes the air to move in a gap between the web and stabilizer. Because of the movement air, there the gap is at a lower static pressure as compared to the air on the opposite side of the web. This pressure difference across opposite sides of the web draws the web towards the bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer.
  • the center portion of the web 4 may be adjacent the bottom of the stabilizer.
  • the side edges 5 of the web may curl away from the sheet edge region 16 of the bottom 17 of the stabilizer. There is a desire to eliminate the curling and force the side edge 5 into the same plane as the center portion of the web 4.
  • Figure 3 illustrates a moving web 4 having side edges 5 that are uncurled due to moving fluid, e.g., air streams, 9 moving away from the side edges.
  • moving fluid e.g., air streams
  • a moving fluid 9 e.g., air
  • the force causes the side edges 5 of the web to move towards the sheet edge region 16, which is a strip of the flat bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer adjacent the desired location of the side edges 5 of the web.
  • the force results from the movement of the fluid, e.g., an air flow 9, away from the web edges 5 and along or adjacent the sheet edge 16 of the bottom of the stabilizer.
  • air is used to refer to a moving fluid that is preferably pressurized atmospheric air but may be other gases and liquids and includes using a vacuum or other devices to impart a positive or negative pressure as compared to atmospheric air pressure.
  • the air may flow through a gap 2 between an air movement or air direction device 3, e.g., a hollow beam that may have air nozzles, that is adjacent the sheet edge and slightly beyond the side edges of the web.
  • an air movement or direction device 3 attached to the bottom surface of the stabilizer such that an air gap 2 is formed between the beam and bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer.
  • the moving fluid 9 is directed away from the edges 5 of the web 4 in a direction that is preferably perpendicular to the web movement.
  • the fluid may flow in other directions 11, such as shown in Figures 4A and 4B .
  • the air flows generally directed away from the sheet edge region 16 and the side edges 5 of the web.
  • the preferred method is directing the fluid in a direction that is perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the path of web travel and away from the web.
  • the fluid movement 9 creates a low pressure region between the web edges 5 and the sheet edge region 16 of the stabilizer. The low pressure region draws the edge 5 of the web towards the sheet.
  • the air movement and direction device 3 and the movement of the fluid 9 blocks air currents from outside the machine from entering the area near the side edges 5 of the web and the sheet edge region 16 of the bottom 17 of the stabilizer. As such, the air movement device 3 and air movement 9 prevent outside air flows from disturbing the side edges 5 of the web 4.
  • the air movement and direction device 3 may be a row of one or more air knives, pipes, beams or bars with internal air passages and air nozzles formed by drilled holes or slots along the length of the device 3.
  • the air movement and direction devices 3 are preferably mounted on or in the vicinity of a bottom surface of the stabilizer 1 and, particularly, at or outside the sheet edge region 16 of the bottom surface 17.
  • the stabilizer 1 may be positioned below the web and have an upper surface adjacent the web, where the air movement device is mounted on top of the upper surface.
  • the bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer adjacent the web may be flat, arched, contoured or have other shape which faces the web.
  • a gap 2 may be formed between the region 16 of the substantially planar bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer and the air movement or direction device 3 to provide a gap 2 for the air movement that forces the side edges 5 of the web 4 towards the sheet edge region 16 of the planar surface.
  • the gap 2 may be adjacent the air movement or direction device 3, integrated into the stabilizer 1, or integrated into both the air movement device 3 and the stabilizer 1.
  • the air movement or direction device(s) 3 may cause air movement across the side edges regions 16 of the stabilizer and through the gap 2 between the side edge regions 16 and the devices 3.
  • the air movement is at a velocity sufficient to influence the position and orientation of the web edges 5 and cause a reduced pressure that moves the web edges into alignment, e.g., the same plane, as the center portion of the web 4.
  • the gap 2 may also be between a solid bar gap forming device 3a, which is a type of air direction device, and the sheet edge region 16 of the stabilizer.
  • the gap is adjacent a source 20 of a vacuum that draws air through the gap.
  • the source is next to the stabilizer, as shown in Figure 3 .
  • the gap forming device 3a may not be a fluid moving device and forms an obstruction directing air flow through the gap.
  • the gap forming device 3a may be a solid bar having a cross-section shape of a rectangle, circle, oval, airfoil, wing or other shape.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the gap forming device 3a promotes the flow of air through the gap between the stabilizer and gap forming device.
  • the source of air, such as vacuum source 20 moving through the gap may be pressurized air from the stabilizer, or a separate fluid moving device, e.g., a vacuum 20, that moves air through the gap.
  • the bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer 1 adjacent the web may be smooth or rough, a bottom (or top) surface and a planar surface.
  • the sheet edge regions 16 of the bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer 1 are aligned with the web edges 5 and may extend past the web edges 5 (as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 , 4a , 5, 6a, 6b, 7a and 7b ) or end at the web edges (as shown in Figure 4b ).
  • the air movement or direction device(s) 3, 3a may be mounted near one or both of the sheet edge regions 16 of the stabilizer.
  • the device(s) 3, 3a may cause air movement starting at or outside of the web edges 5 and cause the air movement to flow away from the web edges, such as shown in Figures 4a and 4b , 5 and 6 a.
  • the devices 3, 3a may also be located between the stabilizer and the web edges 5, such as shown in Figure 6b .
  • the air movement devices include grooves or slots in the sheet edge region 16 of the stabilizer, wherein the grooves or slots have air apertures to inject air out of the stabilizer or draw air into the stabilizer.
  • the air movement devices 3, 3a may extend part way or full length of the stabilizer 1 and be fixed to or moveable with respect to the stabilizer.
  • the air flowing from the air movement device 3 need not impinge directly on the edges 5 of the web, as shown in Figures 2 and 4 . While the direct impingement of air on the edges 5 may force the edges towards the stabilizer, the direct impingement of air may create stresses and stretching of the web. Directing the air flow away from the web edges without direct impingement of the air on the edges can create a suction between the curled web edges 5 and the sheet edge region 16 of the stabilizer. This suction draws the web edges to the surface of the stabilizer. As shown in Figures 3 , 4a , 4b , 5, 6a, 6b, 7a, and 7b , air can be directed through the gap 2 without impinging the air directly on the web edges 5.
  • the air may be introduced along an inside surface 6 ( Fig. 1 ) of the air movement device 3 facing the edges 5 of the web.
  • a Coanda effect that results in the air 9 moving along to the upper surface 7 of the air movement device 3, which surface faces the gap 2, as illustrated in Figure 7a or up to the surface 16 of the stabilizer as shown in Figure 9 .
  • FIGURE 5 shows a stabilizer 1 having a recess (or protruding) strip(s) 13 (or slots, gaps or grooves) in the sheet edge region 16 of the bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer.
  • the recess strip 13 provides a passage for the air movement away from the web edge 5.
  • the movement of air 9 along the strip 13 of the stabilizer 1 forms a low pressure region between the web edge 5 and the sheet edge region 16 to cause the web edges 5 to move towards sheet edge region of the stabilizer 1.
  • the surface 13 may be parallel with, recessed into or slightly protruding from the bottom surface of the stabilizer
  • FIGURES 6A and 6B show a stabilizer 1 in which the air movement device 3 is an array of air openings, nozzles, air pipes, air slots or air channels (collectively air directors 14) that directs an air flow 12 along the bottom surface of the stabilizer and away from the web edges 5.
  • the array of air directors 14 may be arranged continuously or at regular or irregular intervals, preferably short intervals, along the sheet edge region 16 of the bottom surface 17 of the stabilizer.
  • the air directors 14 may inject air into the sheet edge region 16 from either just outside of the web edges 5 (as shown in Figure 6A ) or inward of the web edges 5 (as shown in Figure 6B ).
  • the air directors 14 may receive pressurized air (27 in Fig.
  • the air directors 14 may be embedded in the stabilizer 1, or in an air movement device 3 to provide an actual or effective gap 2 for air movement.
  • the movement of air 9 through gap 2 causes the web edges 5 to move 8 towards the stabilizer 1 and thereby eliminates or reduces curl in the web edges 5.
  • FIGURE 8 is a schematic diagram showing the location of an air movement device, an air knife 19, being positioned adjacent to the sheet edge region 16 of the bottom planar surface 17 of a stabilizer.
  • the gap 10 between the air movement device 3, e.g., a conduit for air, and the web edge 5 is preferably in a range of zero (e.g. 0.001 inch) to four inches, but may be as much as two feet.
  • a gap 2 is formed between the air movement device 3 and the sheet edge region.
  • the gap is preferably less than one inch (e.g., 25 millimeters) and may be less than one-quarter inch (e.g., 6 millimeters) in a vertical direction.
  • the air knife 19 and the air movement device 3 may be hollow and coupled end to end to other knives or devices.
  • the assembly of knives or devices is connected to a source of pressurized air 27.
  • the pressurized air flows through the assembly of air knives (or devices 3) and flows out air slots in the air knife arranged on an inside wall 6. As the air flows from a slot in the air knife 19 follows the surface of the knife and the air flows through the gap 2.
  • FIGURE 9 shows in cross-section an air knife 19, as an air movement device 3, adjacent a sheet edge region 16 of a stabilizer 1 and a web 4.
  • Air 23 e.g., pressurized air
  • the air slot 22 is arranged on an inside surface 6 of the knife that generally faces the web 4.
  • the air slot 22 may be near a corner 24 on the knife between the inside surface 6 and a surface 25 of the knife facing the gap 2.
  • Pressurized air 23 is discharged from the slot 22 at a higher velocity than the moving air near the sheet edge region and web edge 5.
  • the air discharged by the air knife flows from a conduit 28 in the air knife that is supplied by a source of pressurized air external to the knife. From the conduit 28, air flows into the slot 22 that is formed by the main body 19 of the knife and a plate 30.
  • the movement of high velocity air 23 passing through the gap 2 creates a reduced pressure area in the gap 2 that sucks air 26 from near the web edge 5 and sheet edge region 16.
  • the suction of air 26 also applies a force 31 to the web edge 5 that tends to uncurl the edge and maintain the web edge 5 in the same plane as the remainder of the web.
  • the apparatus and method disclosed herein may be used to uncurl a web edge 5 or prevent curl by moving a fluid away from the edge to create a force that draws the edge towards the surface of a stabilizer.
  • the apparatus may be an air movement device 3 incorporated in the stabilizer (see Fig. 6a and 6b ) or an air movement device 3 adjacent the stabilizer and spaced a horizontal distance from the web edge of preferably no more than four inches.
  • the air movement device 3 may inject air from a source of pressurized air, such as a compressor or blower, or a source of sub-atmospheric air such as a vacuum.
  • the air movement or direction device 3 may comprise a first device, e.g., a bar, which forms a gap 2 through with air is drawn and a second device providing a source of air, such as a vacuum or compressed air. These devices may be separate, such as shown in Figures 3 , 7A and 7B or integrated such as shown in Figures 4B , 6A and 6B .
  • the air may be applied at an elevation between the web and the stabilizer ( Fig. 6A ), recessed within the stabilizer ( Figs. 5 and 6B ), at the same elevation as the web ( Fig. 6A ) or at an elevation below both the web and stabilizer ( Figs. 3 , 4B , 7A and 7B ).
  • the air from the air movement device may be introduced beyond the edge 5 in a horizontal dimension, such in a range of zero to four inches from the web edge.
  • the air may be introduced such that the air flows 15 along the surface of the stabilizer or air movement device 3 pursuant to the coanda effect.
  • the air flows away from edge 5 of the web in a direction substantially parallel to the surface of the stabilizer.
  • the apparatus may use the coanda effect to cause air to move away from web through a gap 2.
  • a controller 21 may have an ability to adjust the air pressure or vacuum level from the air movement device 3, the rate of air flow through the gap 2, and the distance of the width of the gap and the horizontal distance between the gap and edge of the web.
  • the air pressure, vacuum level, air flow rate through the gap and dimensions gap may be adjusted manually based on: observed curl in the web or by a curl sensor, e.g., a light beam and light sensor, detecting excessive curl; web speed, web tension or web crepe; and pressure sensors in the gap or in the sheet edge region 16 of the stabilizer.
